Template day in Itasca

Five to six miles southwest by IL-83 and Irving Park Rd or IL-390. Templating in Itasca is the same free appointment it is everywhere else; the one local wrinkle is that a lot of the village's housing is attached, so building access is worth settling when you book.

What an Itasca floor plan does to the appointment

With 31.9% of Itasca's units in apartment buildings and another 17.5% attached, the practical questions are the boring ones: which entrance, which stair, and whether anyone needs to be told we are coming.

There is not much that is genuinely Itasca-specific about a template appointment, so this page is short on purpose rather than padded with things that are true everywhere.

What the appointment costs

Nothing. The in-home template is free in Itasca and it commits you to nothing — the template costs nothing and commits you to nothing. It is how the range below turns into one number. The installed ranges for a Itasca kitchen are on the Itasca countertops page, and the number we will actually put our name on comes out of the appointment itself.

Getting to Itasca

Itasca sits about 2.1 miles from the shop at 2260 Elmhurst Rd, Elk Grove Village — 5-6 miles southwest of the shop via IL-83 and Irving Park Rd or IL-390; roughly 12-15 minutes.

Itasca is in DuPage County, Illinois — one of 14 towns and 33 ZIP codes we serve in that county, at a median 14.5 miles from the factory. The nearest other towns on our list are Elk Grove Village (2.1 mi), Wood Dale (2.1 mi), Roselle (3.3 mi), so a Itasca job and a Elk Grove Village job are usually on the same run.

Itasca questions

How far is your shop from Itasca?

About 2.1 miles as the crow flies — 5-6 miles southwest of the shop via IL-83 and Irving Park Rd or IL-390; roughly 12-15 minutes. That matters for templating more than for anything else we do, because the template is the appointment where we come to you, and a short run means a tight arrival window rather than a vague morning.

How much overhang do I need for island seating, and will my countertop support it?

Plan 24 inches of width per seat, with knee depth tied to height: 18 inches deep at a 30-inch table, 15 inches at a 36-inch counter, and 12 inches at a 42-inch bar. Most stone and quartz tops can cantilever only about 10-12 inches unsupported, so a comfortable seating overhang usually needs steel brackets, corbels, or a thicker top - confirm the limit with your fabricator before ordering. Leave 32-44 inches behind the stools depending on whether people walk past.

What actually happens on template day, and what do I need to have ready?

A technician spends 30-90 minutes making a laser or physical template of your cabinet runs, marking cutouts, overhangs, and seam locations. Before they arrive you need: cabinets fully installed, level, and anchored; old tops handled per your contract; and the sink, faucet, and cooktop physically on site so cutouts can be traced. If the site is not ready, the appointment reschedules and the project slips — the shop’s production queue behind templating is the real clock, and rejoining it typically costs 3-7 days.
